AppleScript Tutorial : Simple hot folder creation 

I really like your video and I think Applescript is so powerful that most people don’t even know it. The biggest advantage of AppleScript I believe is it’s nativeness. You don’t need to setup any environment, install any library, or do any setting to mess up your system. It’s just there. If you want, you can start coding just right now. This is also the exact problem-what can I do with it? For this, I think you may improve your video by solving this problem. I suddenly got the idea in my mind to share what I’m doing with you. So you may think and start more examples as great videos. I use qr scanner and batch scan multiple code at same time. Then I export the code file in csv via air drop. These codes are mostly either the tracking code on the courier bags I’m sending, or the barcodes on some products. I made couple of unique QR codes, representing “send”, “stock up”, “sale”. One of these command codes are scanned and included in the data exported to “download” folder on my Mac. I have script monitoring the receiving file and exam through it. Then it decides what to do. Either, email customer the tracking numbers. Update stock list database with “do shell scripts” with Sqlite3 also embedded on mac itself. I’m sure there are others you can do. But I haven’t thought anything. So for example if you can find out if we can use the native “GUI windows” to make more actions. Just some thoughts, hope you do well.

Great video, can you also create a video where you describe how to start programs on MAC or even quit by script. when I want to shut down my Mac, I do not want to close all programs first. I know that is not necessary, but makes it easier for me.

Could you please do a video how to change output device by using some hot keys? For example I have my headphones connected and I'd like to apply some combination to switch output from current device let's say my MacBook speakers to headphones and opposite.

Hi! Thank you so much for the lessons you are doing. I started learning applescript quite recently and your videos help a lot in this! I have a request. Can you write the source code of the script under the video? This will speed up the learning process) Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I'm trying to combine this video with some of the Numbers videos. I have the hot folder portion working correctly, however I am unable to remove a column from a numbers document that was converted from xls. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
